Photodissociation dynamics of acetone in gas phase were, for the first time, investigated using the pump‐probe technique of femtosecond transient absorption. To obtain a genuine time profile of nR state, we employed 200‐nm and 400‐nm pulses for two‐photon excitation and three‐photon excitation, resp...
